Question

1. Your older sister, Anna is trying to figure out how she's going to pay for college in the

Fall. Anna is going over her options with you one night and she narrows it down to
either putting her college education on your parents' credit card or taking out a
student loan. Which one would you suggest and why?
I
2. Anna then tells you a story about her friend, Chad. Chad has a Target credit card that
he opened a few months ago. The other day he tried to use his credit card to buy
popcom at the movies, but it was denied. Explain to your sister why this happened.

Answer 1

1.) student loans due to the fact that they are more secure than credit card debt and maybe have long periods before they have to be paid off.
2.) chad has a maximum amount of money he can use before it has to be paid back. Unfortunately chads maximum was so low he couldn’t even buy popcorn, or he already maxed out his card.
